Justice for Trayvon Martin

Mar 19 2012

Three weeks ago, 17-year old Trayvon Martin was gunned down by self-appointed neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman. Despite Zimmerman admitting to following, confronting, and killing Trayvon, he has yet to be arrested or charged with any crime. Just minutes before Trayvon was killed, Zimmerman had called police stating that Trayvon looked "suspicious." Please join us in calling on the Department of Justice to investigate this crime, prosecute Trayvon's killer, and hold the local police accountable for mishandling this case.

This campaign has concluded.
